The Meaning of Roses…

3 February, 2010

I don’t think a day goes by that someone asks the question about the meaning of the different colors of roses.

We usually get a call after some unsuspecting husband or boyfriend gives  colored roses to his significant other. It almost always happens because we make the suggestion since the majority of men tend to order red roses. We, on the other hand, all love the rich colors & fragrances of the colored roses we carry.

In Victorian times each color had a different meaning.  Is case you’re wondering, here is a list of meanings.

Red~ Love, Passion, Respect, I love you.

White~ Innocence, I’m worthy of you.

Red & White together~ Unity in love.

Purple~ Royalty, Reward of virtue.

Yellow~ Joy,  Friendship, Let us forget

Pink~ Grace, Thankfulness

Orange~ Creativity, Fascination, Variety

Peach~ Desire, Gratitude, Appreciation

Lavender~Affection, Enchantment
